I’ve not heard anything @coxjul but I checked the trade account feb releases and it’s only TY. That’s not to say that they won’t move things around. On the plus side Battlefront are visiting next week so we shall wring information from them for you. Watch this space

“There has been a small delay with the D-Day British book, It is now scheduled for release in March of this year. There will be information and articles hitting the web site towards the end of this month. Not to long to wait now.”

Assuming they come to be, any plans for unboxing videos on any parts of the new range?

This has been getting me interested in building a 7th Armoured Division force using the new Desert Rats Start box but I cannot for the life of me work out what is different about the included “Parachute Platoon” in the new box set as opposed to the Rifle Platoon.
None of the box art images are hi def to get a real look at the details.

Comparing the forthcoming dedicated infantry boxes might give a better idea, I presume the subtle differences in weapon loadout, probably only about 10% of the figures will be different with different base configs; depends how fussy you and your opponents are about WYSIWYG…

“Contains: 20x Infantry Teams and 16x Unit Cards. Use this box to build: Rifle Company Company (Hq And 2x Platoons), Or Motor Company (Company Hq And 2x Platoons), Or Commando Troop (Company Hq And 2x Sections)”

Yeah, I’ve been squinting at those images all lunch break and the only differences I am totally convinced of is that the Parachute company has more Machine Gun teams and that they built them with different hats. 😛

Might end up diving in anyway and if they are really off kilt, I can pretend some 6th Airborne got lost and are hanging around when things kick off. Gaming in the gaps, right.
